If you are using the HTML5 doctype then you don't need ' /' at the end either.

It is also advisable to always use the full php opening tag <?php and echo the value.

You'll notice that if you delete the value and click away from the input the placeholder text will show. However, placeholder text should say something useful such as "Name is required" or "Minimum 5 characters" rather than an actual name, as this is mis-leading.

BTW I think name is a very poor name for the name. Use a little imagination; even 'fullname' is better.
